I'm in trouble. I have only one, facing to his left. I got my beautiful poster from a professor during a workshop on Asian literature. Mine graces a wall on my stairwell and the warrior protects my home. I'd love to have another one, too! It's a lovely photo--again! Oh! Oh! I’m in trouble. I have only one, facing to his left.

Kate, I haven't heard anything negative effect if there is only one...but I've never seen them on single though...
